1. Way forward for LTE DL 4Rx AP SI on RF
3GPP TSG-RAN WG4 Meeting # R4-15XXXX
Athens, Greece, 9th-13th Feb, 2015
Way forward for LTE DL 4Rx AP SI on RF
Agenda Item: 9.2.1
Document for: Approval
Source: Ericsson

2. Background
This WF is to provide inputs to TR 36.XXX to conclude LTE DL 4Rx SI and identify the scope and objectives of the potential WI on UE requirements for 4 Rx AP
The agreements in this document will be captured in TR 36.XXX

3. Scope for non-CA operation
No changes anticipated for RF TX requirements
All RF RX tests are in the scope of the work item
specification of requirements in sub-clauses of applicable to 4RX
For each band the RF requirements are verified according to the number of RX ports supported by the UE

4. Objectives for test coverage
The number of additional tests (if any) should be minimised
The tests should not be duplicated if possible: if tested for 4RX in one band, then not tested for 2RX for the same band
Related to conformance testing
RF requirements for 4 RX ports specified such that conformance testing need not be repeated for 2 RX ports in a band for which 4 RX ports are supported

5. Scope for CA operation
Specify 4RX RF requirements for intra-band contiguous CA after the non-CA requirements have been completed
